SMRP Workshop
Workshop 3: The Planning and Scheduling Seminar/Game
May 14-15, 2008
Doubletree
Guest Suites Minneapolis
Presented by Don Seiler and Brent Miller, both of RMG
Let's face it, we all learn better when an activity or a
game is involved, so join SMRP for an educational workshop
that is centered on doing just that. Attendees will first
be given the fundamentals of proven Work Management methodologies
and then the fun begins. Using machines and parts made of
Legos, in the first round participants will attempt to get
machines fixed while still delivering products using a “typical”
work management process. In the second round participants
will learn the impact that good processes, communication
and team work make when it comes to costs, reliability and
work culture.
Building on the fundamentals of the morning
Lego Planning & Scheduling activity, the afternoon session
will teach participants how to use these Work Management
methodologies as a management tool to focus on the implementation
of reliability improvements. Methodologies for managing
Reliability Activities will be discussed and attendees will
participate in a practical application of the material in
the form of a self-assessment of their own reliability management
processes.
This event will "kick off" with
a tour of the famous Metrodome.
The tour will give attendees a sneak peak into how this
unique stadium operates, and most importantly how it stays
inflated.
Following Wednesday's session there will
be a networking reception where the conversations from the
day can continue into the night. We will also gather anyone
who is interested to head back to the Metrodome to watch
the Minnesota Twins take on the Toronto Blue Jays. The baseball
game will be dutch treat, but will be a great opportunity
to network and see the stadium in action!
The fee for this workshop will be $425
for SMRP members and $550 for non- members (this fee includes
a one year membership with SMRP). The fees include meals
as well as the networking reception. Download the regsitration

Plan to come a day early to sit for the
CMRP exam. The Certified Maintenance and Reliability Professional
certification is now accredited by the American National
Standards Institute. The exam will be held from 6:00 p.m.-
8:00 p.m. on Tuesday, May 13. To register, please download
